April 13, 2024. Iran launches hundreds of drones and missiles against Israel. Almost none hits. No one is killed. No critical infrastructure is destroyed. It was not a failure. As I argue, this is performative aggression, a game of bumper cars in a world long defined by games of chicken.

Damn, X FKA Twitter is a swamp of ignorant bigots and grifters.
You can cull all of the foreign accounts masquerading as Westerners and it won't change the sad fact that the West is full of its own extremists.

The people who claim Polish collaboration and "Polish death camps" seem unable to explain what they mean by "Poland" and "Poles" during the Holocaust. Even the last Polish census (1931) is unsatisfactory...

The usual American left-wing suspects cannot contain their glee at the Mamdani-Trump meeting.
Of course, anyone liberal or "establishment" Democrat paying homage to Trump would be considered class treason.
Kamala Harris is still a traitor for being seen with Liz Cheney.

Getting schadenfreude from the protests in Dearborn, which voted for Trump and Stein in 2024 and against Harris.
When Trump surges masked and insignia-less DHS flying columns into the city, Gaza will be the least of Dearborn's concerns.
